Thank God, Anyway
Winter. Saturday morning it was.
I woke up, called me my boss
"You're so lazy, you can't work anymore!"
Do you know, how were in a big loss?!
Couldn't believe in what he said.
Without moving, the way to stress i let.
No, it was my dream job, if you know?!
Dismissal was really my upset.
I thought, my life came to the end,
Oh no! It mustn't be the end.
I have a friend with the name "Alcohol",
Without fail, only he can help.
Jumped out the bed, hurrying to my friend,
Going to the shop by the pevement.
Staying in a big crowd of people,
Noticed smth. and stood for a minute:
I saw a girl without legs,
Do you think for money she begs?!...
No! She was playing violin
Thank the God, in any case!
I saw even an eyeless man,
His life was by itself fun.
He was earning by telling jokes
Thank the God, in any time!
A woman lost her baby, i saw
What feelings were inside her?
What would i do if i were instead?
I thank the God, anyway!
Yes! I started to thenk my God.
Cause, you know, life is really short.
Wasting job is nothing than these
Never stop to thank your God!
